New taxes for Americans coming in 2013

Congress approved US President Barack Obama’s hallmark health care bill nearly three years ago, but only in the coming weeks will Americans finally start to see the real price of the program.

A whole new slew of taxes are expected to be imposed starting January 1 to help pay for the health care plan, and that isn’t sitting pretty with some high-income households, or even the medical industry.

There will be a few new changes in 2013 as far as taxes go, but the one that might affect the most people is one that targets income investments. Individuals making more than $200,000 annually (and married couples making over $250k combined) will be subjected to a 3.8 percent levy on investment income, a maneuver that it expected to earn Uncle Sam an extra $123 billion between the first of the year and 2019.

Life must be good in the UK if OP is worried about Americans making 200,000 dollars a year being taxed a little more. Let me see.... 200,000 is about 16,500 a month or 4,000 a week or 800 per working day.

1/2 of America isn't claiming / paying taxes now. What makes you think they will after the hike?

See, when you still have your guns you can tell tyrants to fuck off.

Its a game of outlasting. They are playing with a 'fiscal cliff' which means they are out of tricks. Once the dollar is gone, so are they. The people on the other hand, will PROSPER. They need us, we dont need them. Their 'plan' called for us all to be in the streets begging for food stamps in exchange for our arms by now.

oblameo and the dems in congress were sure to plan it so that the "pain" wouldn't come until after the election. americans are soooooooooooo stupid that they can't think beyond today so they voted like good little sheeple.

actually most americans don't care who pays what in taxes because far too many of them DON'T pay ANY taxes. we who do are so far outnumbered that our voices don't count.

we get to pay the bills and have no say. taxation without representation, revolutions have been fought for that reason.

our decline began when the ruling class figured out they could vote power for themselves by taxing the producers. our decline began when we allowed non-producers to enter the country and become "voting citizens."

our decline can be traced to the very "progressive" woodrow wilson, approximately 100 years ago.

I live comfortably and in what I consider luxurary off about $15,000 a year. (I should clarify that I have an average Joe Blow job and am not smooching off the government!!)

So I'm not going to shed a tear for those making $200,000 + getting taxed a little more.

If I lived with my parents and ate their food, I would agree with you.

You obviously don't have children either.

Point is, I work hard for my money, I don't want to give it to a corrupt gov who will waste it on Obama vacations.

and they buy votes with it. for everyone who works for the government, to vote against big, expensive government is a vote against themselves so there are more and more government leeches and again less producers. even government workers who pay taxes are taking taxpayer money and paying some of it back to the government in a never ending cycle of dependence.

name one thing that the government produces on its own? (not you specifically, the question is rhetorical)

Glad you are not smooching off the government, but living in a cardboard box doesn't count as "luxurary."

Forget about luxury. It's not possible to even live at all on $15,000 a year.

Today obama comes after those making $200,000. You can be sure there will come a time that he will come after those making $15,000. Don't you realize that's how it works?

In my area $225,000 can be a fire fighter (with overtime) and a school teacher.
